Cam Newton is a quarterback who has struggled over the past few years. Although Newton led the Carolina Panthers to a Super Bowl a few years ago, he has dealt with injuries ever since. Moreover, his accuracy has been non-existent, and the teams he has played for have reduced him to a running back. Based on his last stints in New England and Carolina, it is pretty clear he cannot play NFL football anymore. Sure, it’s a hard pill to swallow, but the National Football League can be like that sometimes.
Now, however, Newton is trying to make a comeback in the league. He recently said that there aren’t 32 quarterbacks in the league that are better than him. Additionally, he will be at Auburn Pro Day where he will get to showcase his talents. On Undisputed yesterday, Shannon Sharpe laced into Newton and hit him with a dose of reality. In the clip down below, Sharpe explains how Newton is now a “random” in the league and that the NFL does not view him favorably. Simply put, Newton cannot start for an NFL franchise.
Cam Newton Speaks
₽ØÎÑT TÄK£Ñ @ShannonSharpe áñd Î ám ñøt dēñÿīñg šømē fáčtš thát ÿøū bøūght ūp ÜÑK#vērÿVÄŁÎD ßÜT ÎF ¥ØÜ GÎV£ M£ Ä fūłł ØFF§£Ä§ØÑ TØ Ł£ÄRÑ whát Î ám šūppøšēd tø dø wīth á §TÄߣ£ FRÄÑČHΧ£. Î prømīšē ¥ØÜ, Î wīłł ₽RØV£ thát Îm ÑØ RÄÑDØM šīr -1ØV£
Newton saw this clip and immediately went into the comments section where he offered up a response. Of course, Newton made sure to use those special characters that always seem to adorn his social media posts. “₽ØÎÑT TÄK£Ñ,” Newton began. “Añd Î ám ñøt dēñÿīñg šømē fáčtš thát ÿøū bøūght ūp ÜÑK. ßÜT ÎF ¥ØÜ GÎV£ M£ Ä fūłł ØFF§£Ä§ØÑ TØ Ł£ÄRÑ whát Î ám šūppøšēd tø dø wīth á §TÄߣ£ FRÄÑČHΧ£.

Sports can be a pretty brutal industry. The NFL especially is known for chewing players up and spitting them out. Some guys have short windows for success, while others are able to be prosperous for long periods of time. Overall, the randomness of it all can feel unfair, and that seems to be the sentiment in Newton’s camp. Let us know whether or not you think Newton can come back, in the comments below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from the sports world.
Shannon Sharpe is easily one of the funniest men on television. In the realm of sports talk TV, Sharpe is easily a cut above the rest. Although not everyone agrees with his commentary, there is no denying that he is very fun to listen to. Whenever he sits across from Skip Bayless, the sparks are flying, and it makes for truly amazing TV. That said, Sharpe also has a considerable presence on social media. Overall, he saves Instagram for all of his sneakers and his outfit checks. Subsequently, his Twitter is where he can interact with fans and crack a few jokes on occasion.
Recently, Sharpe and the rest of Twitter were given plenty of material to work with. This was because of an interview Larsa Pippen did with Andy Cohen. Throughout the interview, Pippen made various revelations about her relationship with Marcus Jordan. Moreover, she also spoke a bit about her love life with Scottie Pippen. This is where she revealed that she would have sex with Pippen four times per night, for 23 years. She claimed that they never skipped a day, although this truly seems impossible.
Shannon Sharpe Speaks
That’s why Pip was plaqued with back problems during his career. My bck hurts from reading this. https://t.co/jehj6nPgYf
Sharpe could not miss an opportunity to make some jokes here. Above, you can see that he took to Twitter to say “That’s why Pip was plagued with back problems during his career. My bck hurts from reading this.” It was a pretty funny comment that fans couldn’t help but agree with. However, it is interesting to consider the logistics of what Pippen said. Scottie was on the road quite a bit throughout his career, and Larsa wasn’t always with him. Additionally, it just feels like there is some serious cap going on.
In Pippen’s interview, she made mention of the fact that if she were to marry Marcus Jordan, she would change her last name to Jordan. This was a wild thing to say when you consider how Scottie and Michael have beef. At this point, it feels like we are seeing some sort of forbidden warfare play out in real-time. Let us know what you think of all this, in the comments below.
Shannon Sharpe is one of the more brutally honest individuals on TV. Overall, he is allowed to be this way as he actually has the resume. He has won three Super Bowl titles and he revolutionized the Tight End position. Although some might not like what he has to say, you have to respect it because of his experience. He knows what it takes to win at the Professional level, and he has always backed up his talk with stats, or his own actions. That said, you can imagine he has had a lot to say about free agency.
Throughout the last few days, we have seen a ton of interesting stories. Perhaps the biggest story is that Aaron Rodgers is likely to go to the New York Jets. However, Rodgers isn’t the only quarterback to be blessed with a new team. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers announced that they would be signing Baker Mayfield to a one-year deal. He will be their Tom Brady replacement, although Sharpe is less than impressed with this move.
Shannon Sharpe Rips The Bucs
Baker Mayfield reportedly inked a 1-year deal with the Bucs:
“Can you imagine going from Tom Brady to Baker Mayfield? I’m surprised Mike Evans or Chris Godwin haven’t requested a trade.” — @ShannonSharpepic.twitter.com/QbxLXqnIzr
Over the years, Sharpe and Skip Bayless have had harsh debates about whether or not Baker Mayfield is any good. Sharpe always argues that Mayfield is just okay, but cannot lead a team to the Super Bowl. Consequently, he felt like going from Tom Brady to Mayfield is a bit of a stretch. So much so that he theorizes that Mike Evans and Chris Godwin could be looking for trades, very soon. “Can you imagine going from Tom Brady to Baker Mayfield?” Sharpe asked. “I’m surprised Mike Evans or Chris Godwin haven’t requested a trade.”
This might be a little harsh, but it is clear that Sharpe is just telling the truth, at least in his mind. Mayfield is part of the Buccaneers’ rebuild, and there isn’t much of a chance of him being there beyond just one season. That said, the Bucs probably won’t care too much if he doesn’t pan out. Either way, let us know what you think of Sharpe’s take, down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news from around the sports world.
Shannon Sharpe is someone who knows what it takes to be successful in the NFL. Overall, he was one of the best tight ends to ever do it. In fact, many credit him for changing the way the position is played. Moreover, he was able to win three Super Bowl titles, and he did so over a four-year span. He is simply a legend of the game, and when he speaks, football fans listen. Unfortunately, he cannot get his own co-host to listen, but we digress.
Now that NFL free agency is here, Sharpe is getting to talk about his bread and butter, which is football. This year, there has already been a ton of movement. Additionally, players like Odell Beckham Jr. are trying to get back on the field. In fact, OBJ recently held a workout in which 12 teams showed up. Clearly, there is some interest in the wide receiver. However, he is looking for a contract that would pay him a whopping $20 million per year. This figure has raised some eyebrows, including Sharpe’s.

.@ShannonSharpe says OBJ’s market is “cool” after nearly a dozen teams attended his workout:
“He looked good, under control, but $20M for a guy who is coming off two ACL surgeries is asking an awful lot.” pic.twitter.com/QujzO9x3OA
In the clip above, Sharpe speaks on how this figure doesn’t really make much sense. Although Shannon Sharpe likes Odell, he believes the asking price is just too high. After all, Beckham Jr. has been through some injuries over these past few years. “He looked good, under control, but $20M for a guy who is coming off two ACL surgeries is asking an awful lot,” Sharpe said. In the past, it seemed like either the Buffalo Bills, New York Giants, or Dallas Cowboys would sign him. However, there is no telling which team wants him right now. Overall, it is one of those big stories to continue following.
Now that OBJ has torn his ACL twice, there is no telling how he will be able to perform. That said, it is easy to see why some teams are reluctant to take the risk. Hopefully, however, we get to see Odell back on the field this season. He is fun to watch and certainly makes the game better. Let us know which team you want to see Odell sign with, in the comments down below.
Pro Football Hall of Famer and three-time Super Bowl champion Shannon Sharpe has made significant strides off the field as a sports commentator and businessman.
Arguably one of the top tight ends in NFL history, the 14-year football vet has since emerged as one of the most viewed sports analysts on television since retiring in 2003 once his broadcast career started a year later for CBS Sports show The NFL Today.
After nearly a decade, Sharpe joined Sirius NFL Radio as a co-host for their Opening Drive morning segment and was later inducted into the NFL Pro Football Hall Of Fame in 2011.
Two years later, the former Denver Bronco and Baltimore Raven later shifted his efforts as a columnist for FitnessRX For Men. He also served as a spokesperson for the brand being featured on the cover of their magazine in Sept. 2013.
Over the course of playing in the NFL, he has earned more than $20 million.
Sharpe has recently launched a new podcast show with FOX Sports called Club Shay Shay. He sits down one-on-one and interviews athletes, influencers, and celebrities. They discuss the latest topics and trending headlines in sports and pop culture.
Outside of his media ventures, the father of three launched a premium cognac called Shay by Le Portierin 2021.
Shannon Sharpe’s Brand New Luxury Spirits Collaboration
Shay by Le Portier launched in partnership with leading luxury spirits expert Jay Bradley of The Craft Irish Whiskey Co. He is the creator of the world’s most expensive whiskey, The Emerald Isle. It sold at an auction for $2 million, according to reports.
“When I decided to create my own cognac, I knew I had to find someone who really knew about taste and how to build up those layers of flavor I love,” stated Sharpe in a press release.
“So much of the inspiration in my life comes from the places I’ve been and people I’ve met through professional football,” Shannon Sharpe said. “I started thinking, ‘What if I could share that sense of connection and conversation with friends with everyone!’ That’s the reason for creating Le Portier Cognac.”
Currently, Shay’s VSOP inaugural cognac release has a retail price of $98.99, with future luxury releases to be announced.
The now award-winning cognac is being recognized with high honors. This includes winning Platinum – Best in Classat the SIP Awards 2022.
So far, Shay by Le Portier has reportedly won seven prestigious awards for taste and design. Therefore, it has beaten established brands such as Courvoisier, Rémy Martin, and Branson by rap superstar Curtis 50 Cent Jackson.
The company’s awards list includes:
Gold at The Spirits Business Design and Packaging Masters 2021
Gold at The Spirits Business Cognac 2022
Silver at the International Wine & Spirits Competition 2022
Silver at the International Spirits Challenge 2022
Awarded 93 points at the New York International Spirits Competition 2022
Gold at The San Francisco World Spirits Competition 2022
Platinum – Best in Class at the SIP Awards 2022
Bradley previously stated, “Shay by Le Portier is a game-changer in the cognac market. Everyone knows Shannon Sharpe. They all know how much he loves great cognac. So when we first met, I knew that with his taste and my knowledge of how to create the incredible layers of flavor he loves–we could make something incredible.”
Sharpe states on his website that the premium cognac is dedicated to his grandmother, Mary Porter. She helped raise him and his other siblings in Glenville, Georgia, and helped him become the man he is today.
“There’s no question in my mind I would be where I am…had it not been for her,” he said. “It’s about putting in the work and having the right people on your team to inspire you.”
Sharpe and his siblings, Libby and Sterling, moved with Porter from Chicago, after realizing her daughter needed help raising them.
“I became the player; I became the person; I became the man that I am because of that 1,000 square foot cinder block home,” he added.
Shannon Sharpe is easily one of the most entertaining people on television. Overall, he makes every single episode of Undisputed infinitely better. The energy he brings to the show is infectious. Moreover, he is able to create a solid dynamic with Skip Bayless, who can be very hard to work with. Although the two engage in some pretty difficult debates sometimes, there is no denying they are a dynamic duo. Fans love watching them, and the rising ratings are a testament to their consistency on the air.
As for their most recent debates, there are some very interesting topics that Shannon and Skip have had to cover. One of them is the Los Angeles Clippers, who have struggled a bit since adding Russell Westbrook to the roster. Overall, Russ clearly is not the best fit for that team. However, the Clippers are dedicated to finding a way to make all of this work. As you can imagine, Sharpe has some very strong feelings about this, and he let them be known on Undisputed today.
Shannon Sharpe Corrects Himself
Unfortunately, while trying to make a very poignant analogy, Sharpe ended up slipping up. In the clop above, courtesy of TMZ, Sharpe dropped an F-bomb. Although he immediately apologized, Bayless seemed to be pretty taken aback by it all. “If I’m making fried chicken and somebody says, ‘I got some chocolate for you,’” Sharpe began. “What the hell? Yeah, I like chocolate but what the f*** that have to?” After apologizing, the NFL legend finished his thought by saying “Why would I need chocolate to go with fried chicken?” Although it was an unfortunate thing to have happen, it doesn’t seem like anyone was too upset by it.
There is a lot of unpredictability when it comes to the world of Live TV. Anything can happen at any time, and you need to be prepared for it. Clearly, Sharpe was well prepared for his own mistake. He owned up to it, moved on quickly, and showed grace while doing so. At the end of the day, that is all you can do in a situation like this. Give us your take on the slip-up, in the comments down below.
Brett Favre has been accused of some very damaging crimes as of late. Favre allegedly conspired with the government of Mississippi to divert welfare funds. Overall, these funds allegedly went to creating a volleyball facility at his daughter’s university. There is an ongoing investigation into these accusations, although Favre has maintained his innocence. At this point, it remains to be seen whether or not he will be charged with anything. For now, there are no plans to charge him, but of course, that could change.
Additionally, Favre has launched a defamation lawsuit against the likes of Pat McAfee and Shannon Sharpe. This is due to their coverage of the subject, which Favre believes has been less than favorable. Favre and his lawyer Eric Herschmann are confident that this is worthy of a lawsuit. In fact, Herschmann went on Crain & Company on the Daily Wire where he made the claim that this case is a “slam dunk.” Herschmann said that while Sharpe hasn’t spoken about the lawsuit, McAfee certainly has. The lawyer thinks this has made their case stronger and that McAfee is digging his own grave.
“Shannon Sharpe, since he’d been sued, has been quiet. Pat McAfee keeps talking about it. In all of my years as an attorney and being a prosecutor previously, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a defendant build a case against themselves,” Herschmann said. “His defense was ‘Oh, I threw in the word allegedly’ but two things is; the things that we cite, he didn’t throw in the world ‘allegedly,’ and secondly if he did any research or had a lawyer looking, that’s not really a defense.” This is an interesting analysis of the situation, although it is up to the court to make that final decision.
The entire Favre-Mississippi saga has been fascinating to watch. Many on social media have tried to bring attention to the case, although there is little that can be said or done right now. The investigation remains ongoing, and many are curious to see how it all plays out. Let us know what you think of all this, in the comments below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from around the sneaker world.
Boosie BadAzz called out Skip Bayless on Twitter, Monday night, for questioning whether Ja Morant is affiliated with the Crips. The Memphis Grizzlies suspended the All-Star indefinitely for waving a gun during an Instagram Live post over the weekend. Bayless and his Undisputed co-host, Shannon Sharpe, discussed the incident on Monday morning’s episode.
“STOP @RealSkipBayless,” Boosie wrote on Twitter later in the day, “Don’t build the narrative that he’s a real gang member SMH HE NOT NO CRIP HE A PROFESSIONAL BASKETBALL PLAYER who made a mistake.” While Morant will miss at least two games, he has since apologized for the live stream, which occurred just after a report from The Washington Post detailed multiple other incidents of violence linked to Morant.

As for Bayless’ comments, he mentioned seeing Morant “throwing up a crip sign.” “So I’ve called around the league to people I’ve known forever, talking about Ja,” Bayless said. “Because I was so shocked by the IG Live, how brazen it was. And I had several people say to me, ‘Well, timeout, are you sure you guys on TV aren’t giving him a pass here, like you’re not that?’ They’re asking me, ‘Are you sure he’s not that?’ Like, that’s just who he is, that he is about that life.’ And remember, he’s thrown up the Crips sign, I’ve seen him throw it up two or three times, I’ve probably missed some other times.”
“What does that mean? Does that mean he wants to associate with the Crips?” Bayless further continued. “Or he got initiated by the Crips? Or he has a dream of being a Crip? I don’t know. I’m just throwing this out–that, are we missing the boat here that that’s just who he’s been from the start and we keep saying, ‘No, you’re just associated with the wrong people,’ when he’s actually part of the wrong people.”
Sharpe took Bayless’ side in the conversation. He also added: “You know what Skip? You and the people you talked to might be 100 percent correct, but that makes it even more egregious. Because you got out of that.”
Boosie’s Response
STOP @RealSkipBayless Don’t build the narrative that he’s a real gang member SMH HE NOT NO CRIPHE A PROFESSIONAL BASKETBALL PLAYER who made a mistake
Shannon Sharpe has been a huge critic of the Memphis Grizzlies this season. Overall, a lot of that has to do with the fact that the Grizzlies have been talking a big game all year long. However, they haven’t always been able to back up that talk. In fact, Sharpe got into an altercation with some Grizzlies players during a game against the Lakers. Subsequently, Shannon apologized and he has simply focused on providing analysis of the game. However, players like Ja Morant have made it difficult for Shannon to only talk about the on-court product.
In the last week or so, Morant has been wrapped up in numerous controversies. Firstly, he was accused of threatening a mall cop and threatening a teenager with a gun. Moreover, Morant flashed a gun on Instagram Live while at a strip club. This immediately led to an indefinite suspension that could very well spell the end of his season. Today, on Undisputed, Sharpe was tasked with speaking about the Ja situation. That is when he praised the Grizzlies star for apologizing. Although, he made sure to include a reality check for the burgeoning superstar.
“Ja was traveling down a road he didn’t need to be on. I’m glad it didn’t take something tragic or catastrophic for you to realize the error of your ways.” pic.twitter.com/lGxmPmGUfC
“Ja was traveling down a road he didn’t need to be on,” Shannon Sharpe said. “I’m glad it didn’t take something tragic or catastrophic for you to realize the error of your ways.” Following this statement, Sharpe went on to say that if you continue to flash guns on social media, people will want to test whether or not you’re about that life. He even likened it to people getting robbed after flashing their wealth. Overall, it is a very salient point that Morant should certainly keep in mind.
Ultimately, his behavior could lead him down a path of destruction. The NBA is trying to maintain its image, and the Grizzlies want to protect Ja from himself. Although it is a bad situation, it seems like it is being worked out. Hopefully, Morant is able to learn from this, and eventually move on. He is simply too talented of a player to be wasting his NBA opportunity in this way. Stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from around the sports world.
It was inevitable that the latest reports surrounding Ja Morant would be discussed on Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless’s Undisputed. The Grizzlies’ point guard’s behavior off the court raised eyebrows throughout the past several months. He emerged as one of the leading players in the NBA but his actions are undoubtedly questionable. Sharpe previously warned Ja Morant to clean up his act, especially for an individual whose talents prevented him from diving into the streets. “I wish Ja would realize he’s not a thug,” Sharpe said earlier this month. “You’re not about that life! No one looks at you and thinks you’re hood. Stop pretending!!”
On Wednesday, reports emerged claiming Ja Morant threatened a 17-year-old during a pick-up game and a mall security guard in a separate incident. Morant allegedly flashed a gun during a pick-up game and punched the teen repeatedly last summer. He hasn’t publicly responded to the claims. Still, many individuals, such as Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless, expressed their disappointment in his overall behavior and lack of professionalism when he isn’t on the NBA court.
Shannon Sharpe & Skip Bayless Chime aIn

On the latest episode of Undisputed, Sharpe passionately slammed Morant for “hustling backward.” Shannon Sharpe explained that Morant’s done the opposite of what an actual gangster does when they get legitimate money. He brought up infamous gangsters like John Gotti — while Skip mentioned fictional mobster Tony Soprano — who remained lowkey publicly. “Skip, he portrays something that he’s not,” Sharpe told Skip Bayless. “I don’t get Ja. He’s hustling backward.”
Meanwhile, Skip Bayless reflects on the moments involving Ja Morant that “disturbed” him, including allegations that his friends pointed a red laser at the Pacers’. He explained that the common thread between the altercations with the 17-year-old, the security guard, and the Pacers incident is the individuals surrounding him – echoing a sentiment Sharpe said in the past. Bayless explained that Ja’s friends are dragging him down before Sharpe interjected to double down on claims that Morant’s pretending to be something that he’s not. Check out Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless’s discussion surrounding the reports on Ja Morant above.
